At the risk of appearing even more pretentious and foolish than you might already think, I want to let you know that this film (which I actually saw several years and hundreds of films ago) moderately made me shit. Even the "Fiore delle mille e una notte" seems to me to be a decidedly overrated film, but from a purely cinematic point of view (photography, editing), this is of a rare dreariness. Then there's Pasolini; the poet, the thinker, the genius, the man, and everything you want. But here, for me, he really messed up.

I didn’t understand the square brackets around the ocean... I saw something that reminded me of my own things, and even though it’s probably something only I noticed, I liked it a lot [but you need to explain to me the reason for the brackets]. Of course, I have no idea who these desidia are, but the link is quite pleasant [and considering the audio quality (very poor), that’s saying something]. P.S.: I don't know how to make curly brackets; otherwise, I would have added those too.

"We just wanted to have fun! Then that depressed kid showed up and ruined everything."
This line from "the wrestler" perfectly describes the whole scene and the low quality (mainstream artistic) of the period, driven more by the stupidity of the listeners than by that of the producers, probably. And it's there in the '80s that the roots of that ethic of "I just want to enjoy myself, I don't care about anything else" took hold, galloping through the last 20 years and now showing its fruits. Obviously, the current situation isn't the glamsters' fault, but that scene will never be able to convince me. Anyway, this album rocks :)

I will try them too.

I have selected and copied everything I could. Now I’ll try to see if it all fits in one comment:

I’ll start by saying one thing: I really like Dream Theater, but I’m not as crazy about them as many of their fans who go to see them in concert. Honestly, I would much rather listen to one of their CDs at home than listen to them live for almost three hours, and I’ll explain why right away: I find them to be truly excellent and superb musicians, with great drive and technique, from John Petrucci, a god of super speed on guitar, to Mike Portnoy, one of the best drummers in the genre and perhaps in rock in general, while I have always found LaBrie’s voice unbearable... very high, of course, with a great vocal timbre and a frightening vibrato, but it doesn’t evoke (at least for me) the emotions that someone like Robert Plant or Ian Gillan, two other titans who sing with soul, can provide.
But now let’s review the album: I don’t dislike their albums, I especially find this one well made and well constructed. However, "Images And Words" is indeed full of excellent things but also contains absolutely cold stuff just thrown in there to stretch the songs and make them hard to play (we all understand that Dream Theater is complicated).
1) "Pull Me Under" is a very nice piece, perhaps one of the simpler songs in terms of compositions on the whole album, because it’s not overloaded with too many changes or solos that are thrown in carelessly, but I instead find it a very powerful song with a great guitar solo (between "As I Am" and this one, I don’t know which is stronger). The only drawback? The ending is too rushed... 8/10
2) "Another Day" is one of the few non-metal songs on the album, but it’s almost a pop melody with good lyrics and good engagement, although after a few minutes it becomes too repetitive. The guitar solo in the interlude is very nice, and LaBrie’s voice in this song at least manages to bring down a small tear. 7/10
3) "Take The Time" is one of the most beautiful songs on the entire album: the beginning, with the drum intro and Petrucci’s solo, envelops the listener with their powerful energy. Even when LaBrie’s voice enters, the song has various changes in rhythm and timing that fit, especially the chorus is very beautiful... but starting from the fifth minute, the song begins to wear a bit thin for one reason: those damned continuous changes and super-fast solos that repeat haphazardly ruin the atmosphere. Just when the song seems to be ruined, fortunately towards the end of the sixth minute, the beautiful ending saves the whole thing. Great, but for me, if they had removed some superficial nonsense, it might have been a much more engaging song. 7.5/10
4) "Surrounded" is a beautiful song with a lovely piano intro. The verse, despite being very pop, is very nice, especially in the transition to the chorus. Once again, LaBrie’s voice can be heard, and it seems he is more suited for this kind of song, because he engages a lot. The song then ends as it began. The result is very good, one of the least technical and more emotional. 8/10
5) "Metropolis" is an underrated and overrated masterpiece at the same time: the beautiful keyboard and guitar intro and the arrival of Portnoy’s drums create an almost theatrical beginning that transports the listener into a unique atmosphere, almost as if in ancient Greece, or so it seems to me with that catchy initial keyboard sound. But then the horror returns: at a certain point, the listener finds themselves assaulted by horrible and continuous senseless and boring super-fast solos, which break the flow after just a few minutes. Overall,

Noon

Well, better to hate the living than love the dead; also because necrophilia is illegal if I'm not mistaken... So maybe "I fuck the dead" would have been a more fitting title for a group that makes a lot of noise and wants to be alternative and provocative. Or not? Never skimp on the terms, kids. I liked the review, but that cover is not exactly the height of refinement.

"Gli Ufomammut have become, over the years, the AC/DC of Psychedelic Stoner Doom Metal." This is a sufficient opening to justify a deluge of one-star ratings. The fact that the rest of the review states "the Ufomammut are repetitive" when talking about the most repetitive genre in the history of music over the last 30 years would also justify a flood of laughter. Of course, the basic idea is always the same. Then you don’t mention the most interesting points that provide the best insights for a review: that the album in question is actually half an album (gold: opus alter should be released in autumn if I’m not mistaken) and that it’s an album produced by neurot records, associated with neurosis.
I haven't listened to the album much yet, but it seems better than both Lucifer Songs and Idolum, and that since Eve, the work on "sound" has progressed with bursts of electronics over the drones (but maybe that’s just nonsense). For now, I preferred Eve. There remains the problem that on record they are worth a tenth of what they are live, but that's something I'm getting tired of repeating.
